@r0bsterry @joevaccaro Side note, yes, but enormously important. Way too many companies and hiring managers don’t pay any attention to how much pride an employee can take in her job title. People are not just moved by money. Some want recognition.

Promise a depressing job title and they will NOT come.

@joevaccaro Perhaps even more importantly, people don’t think “I’m up against a poorly designed #AI model.” They think “I’m not good enough for company X”.

This disintegrates self-confidence and closes doors to lots of opportunities in the future (with that company and with tangent ones).

@joevaccaro I think that your point has more to do with the legal protections in place than with sunk costs. The problem here, tho, is that even with a better mechanism to let go “wrong” hires, the “right” hires remain out because of the selection criteria.

I focused the first part of my career on cybersecurity. That showed me the attitude towards risk mitigation in some of the largest organizations in the world. That experience is now invaluable to understand the mindset driving mono/multi-cloud attitude that exists today.
